. . China backs Pak moves to safeguard its security . . The Chinese government did not agree with a proposal from Pakistan for selling JF-17 multi- purpose fighter planes produced by Pakistan and China jointly. Pakistan has received offers for the sale of the planes about four times more than what these planes cost Pakistan. The Chinese have asked Pakistan not to sell the planes before the expiry of 10 years of the production of the same. The sources revealed that Pakistan’s satellite Pak- One Sat is undergoing lab test as the satellite has been manufactured by Pakistan but it would be launched by China through its rocket in the orbit. The satellite has spent 11 days for tests of various parameters in China and it is likely that it would take seven days further in labs before getting ready for launching, the sources said. The satellite will be launched on 14th of August this year. Prime Minister Gilani, who visited the Chinese Space Research Academy here on Friday, had visited the site and he was impressed to see advancement of Chinese technology on space. The prime minister also inspected 13 Chinese satellites, which have been prepared in China through its most modern technology for various purposes.. . China backs Pak moves to safeguard its security

This is hilarious, even Pakistan so called closest bed mate ditched it.. This shows how much Pakistan must have contributed in the so called joint effort.. Not exactally a Bramos.
I think rather China wouldn't want JF17s falling over other customer countries. They can coverup crashes in China or Pakistan. It'll be difficult in other nations, then eventually bringing bad PR
China is considers attack on Pakistan attack on China but doesn't allow it's new best friend to export a aircraft like JF-17.Chinese foreign policy exposed. . What a friendship
China dont want Pakistan to sell junk fighter to anyone, there goes their special and all weather relationship. When it comes to commercial national interest, China does not support Pakistan. LOL Pakistan is fast loosing its friends, this shows the end of road for Paksitan.............
Pakistan will ruin the chances that JF-17 may have ever had to be sold elsewhere. Chinese just ensured they will not be an arms exporter with this move.
China is correct, they cant sell anyone these fighters, because 1] The Might story told about the fighter will be gone. 2] It was developed by China, so Pak has no right to sell anyone. 3] If sold to any countries, if they will operate and tell the world, how much Junk Fighter is this to the world.
this month is very bad news for pakistani, first they came to know their PAF is incompetent fools, their radar, fighter and other US stuff is useless, they were fooled and made laughing stock of whole world without any sympathy from anyone. US raided, killed and take off with body of OBL right under the nose of PA and ISI. Now China their all weather friend just told them, their junk fighter Bunder is not for sale to anyone else. Which means that both US and China have indirectly given up China, now a days they are only doing lip service for Pakistan.
Very competent move by the Chinese, quite predictable actually for all the brouhaha the mandarins at zhongnanhai have shown that their real interest lie with their own people, The JF-17 can only bring "loss of face" and bad name to china if sold to outsiders . Good idea by the Chinese to nip the plan in the Bud.
If advertised or to sell china should do it, not Pak, these people want to get these fighters for one rupee and want to sell it for Rs100, then what will China do in mean time! just bite its nails!!!
Brahmos If you know pakistan correctly they all always make tall claims . If they are able to sell it about 3-4 times the current price it will be must costlier than many current generation planes. No country is fool to fall in their trap even if somehow they decide to sell it . Only reaon they may be able to sell few JF 17 because its dirt cheap . I think that kind of claim of getting 4 times the current price is to fool people living in land of fools.
I still feel that cost is more for a 3rd generation fighter? the poor african countries cant afford that for $1million for a Blunder Fighter ...... hehehe
I hate to bust the party, but this is more about Russian export controls of RD-93 than it is about China sticking it to Pakistan.
